Dragonheart Rising

[Verse 1]
Ash on my shoes
Smoke in my hair
I don’t look back
There’s nothing left there
Map made of rumors
Scars on my hand
Chasing a legend
I don’t understand
[Pre-Chorus]
I was looking for a monster
Something I could make obey
But every step got louder
Like my fear would fade away (fade away)
[Chorus]
Dragonheart rising
Burning through the dark I came from
I thought I was broken
Till your shadow covered the sun
You saw a spark in all my ruin
Said, “Kid, you’re not done” (not done)
Dragonheart rising
Two breaths beating like one
[Verse 2]
Hall of old banners
Blades on the wall
Laughs from the fighters
Names I can’t recall
Then golden eyes find me
Cut through the noise
“Lost little ember
You still got a choice” (hey!)
[Pre-Chorus]
I was reaching for a weapon
You were teaching me to stay
Not to beg for someone’s power
But to light my own way (my way)
[Chorus]
Dragonheart rising
Burning through the dark I came from
I thought I was broken
Till your shadow covered the sun
You saw a spark in all my ruin
Said, “Kid, you’re not done”
Dragonheart rising
Two breaths beating like one
[Bridge]
[Drums drop, tom build, vocals close and raw]
Claws in the cliffside
Hands on your scales
You said, “Feel the rhythm
Of your own inhale”
If the world falls again
We’ll stand where it ends
Not as master and beast
But as partners, as friends (oh)
[Chorus]
Dragonheart rising
Burning through the dark I came from
I thought I was broken
Till your shadow covered the sun
You saw a spark in all my ruin
Now watch what we’ve become (become)
Dragonheart rising
Two breaths beating like one
Dragonheart rising
Now the war’s already won
